Daniels POV:
I stood by the wall, across from the lockers.
I silently watched as Aria walked into school, and a group of girls whispered and laughed as she made her way to her locker.
I sighed.
As a particularly loud comment about Aria was made, i saw as she turned around, fire in her eyes.
"Say it to my face." She crossed her arms.
"You're a bitch!" the girl snarled and slapped her across the face.
A shocked look crawled across Aria's face as she simply rolled her eyes and shut her locker.
"Fucking slut." She continued as her group of girls watched admiringly as she insulted Aria.
Anger bubbled up inside me.
Aria turned around again, and dropped her books.
I saw fury written all over her face, so i rushed over.
"Aria, don't." i said firmly, and picked up her books for her.
She quickly snatched her books from me and walked away, without a word.
I attempted to catch up with her, i called, "Aria."
She turned quickly, her long hair swishing, "Im at my breaking point, Daniel."
Then she walked away again.
I blinked and gripped my books tighter.
"Wait!" I called one more time.
"Lets work on the project at my house today." I tried.
She nodded but walked into her classroom.
|| AFTER SCHOOL
We walked off the bus at my stop.
I cautiously intertwined my fingers with hers.
Butterflies filled my stomach, and yeah that sounds girly but whatever.
"Do you want anything to eat?" i asked, hoping that i didnt sound stupid.
She simply shook her head.
We walked up to my room in still silence.
I left my door ajar.
"What happened today? you usually never fight back with those girls." I blurted and slapped my hand to my forehead, "Sorry, i didnt mean to-"
There was a moment of silence, Aria looking at her hands before stating, "Its just- i dont know- i realized its stupid."
I didnt reply but spread out my papers.
A few moments later, i looked up and nervously said, "Hey, Aria?"
"Yeah?"
"You look really pretty today."
She looked up and smiled, "I do?"
I smiled back, "You look pretty everyday."
"Really?"
"Pretty isnt even the word, its more- gorgeous, stunning, beautiful-"
My brave moment had given me a burst of energy, but it was cut off by Aria's mouth meeting mine.
Her lips felt intoxicating, and adrenalin pumped to my stomach. The feeling was indiscribable.
I felt dumbfounded, as if there was nothing else, just us kissing was all that mattered.
My right hand went to the back of her neck.
We pulled away soon after that.
She smiled a small smile and whispered, "Thanks."
"I'm always here if you need me." I placed my hand on top of hers, squeezed it, and pulled away to pick up my pencil
"Okay so, about the project..."
